Article summary

His Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services (HMICFRS) conducted an inspection into the manner in which law enforcement agencies in England and Wales address organised immigration crime. The report, issued on 16 May 2025, examined efforts by the police, the National Crime Agency, and regional organised crime units, revealing that although activities aimed at disrupting organised criminal groups had increased notably since 2021, critical deficiencies remain in intelligence sharing and operational clarity.
